Abstract
In this work, an array-based online two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) system was constructed for protein separation and effective depletion of high-abundance proteins in human plasma. This system employed a strong anion exchange column in the first dimension and eight reversed-phase liquid chromatographic columns in the second dimension. All the protein components in the first dimension were enriched on the trapping columns, simultaneously back-flushed and concurrently separated in the second dimension. LC eluents were then collected on 96-well plates for further analysis. Compared with common 2D-LC system, this system showed an 8-fold increase in throughput and convenient utilization of stop-flow mode for sample separation. The RSD of retention time and peak area were separately below 0.51% and 8%. Recovery rates of four standard proteins were all above 95%. This array-based 2D-LC system was subsequently applied to the analysis of proteins in human plasma. The eluents containing high-abundance proteins were rapidly located according to the results of bicinchoninic acid assay. In all, with the effective depletion of 84 high-abundance proteins, a total of 1332 proteins were identified through our system. The dynamic range of the identified protein concentrations covered 9 orders of magnitude, ranging from 41 g/L level for HSA down to 0.01 ng/mL level for the low-abundance proteins.
